Thanks for the pointers

Hmm. Doesn't seem right... I have downloaded, compiled and installed the 
special automake version (and the other three as well) that are required 
for the development. I've added this tool's bin path to the PATH 
enviroment variable. I.e.

$ tar xvjf autoconf-000227.tar.bz2
$ cd autoconf
$ ./configure --prefix=/home/sveinse/tic4x/tools
$ make; make install
$ ./autoconf --version
Autoconf version 2.13
$ export PATH="/home/sveinse/tic4x/tools/bin:$PATH"
$ autoconf --version
Autoconf version 2.13

Will suffice, right?

23 sveinse@stardust ~/tic4x/src.tic4x.mt/gas$ make dep-am
cd . && aclocal
cd . && automake --cygnus Makefile
cd . && autoconf
configure.in:12: AC_TRY_COMPILE was called before AC_ISC_POSIX
configure.in:12: AC_TRY_RUN was called before AC_ISC_POSIX
autoconf: Undefined macros:
***BUG in Autoconf--please report*** AC_FD_MSG
***BUG in Autoconf--please report*** AC_FD_CC

24 sveinse@stardust ~/tic4x/src.tic4x.mt/gas$ autoconf --version
Autoconf version 2.13

Shouldn't this be correct then?


Regards,
Svein
